Staring......

Im getting quite annoyed when i go to the store of Home Depot.
I find that people stare at my belly. I feel like saying..."Never seen a PG woman before??
Or they are tring to figure out of Im PG or fat, but it is quite obvious now that Im PG
Anyone get this??

I get this at work a lot. Some people haven't figured out I'm pregnant yet and are too afraid to ask.

Re: Staring......

Get used to it! Chat Icon I noticed alot of staring when I was pg also. There's just something about a PG woman that people can't help but look. They aren't trying to figure out if you are fat or pg, they are just looking kind of in awe. I look (try not to stare) at pg women all the time. I can't help it, it's a beautiful thing. I have to admit that it's something that I miss/liked about being pg. People would look and smile, whether I knew them or not. You get a different "look" from people when you are pg... it's more of an "awwww" look than a "is she fat?" look.

Happned to me last night. DH and I were out to dinner and when I got up to go to the bathroom DH said a woman stared at me the whole time with a strange look on her face.

Diane, they are probably staring at you because you look beautiful. I'm sure that's whyChat Icon

Totally agree with everything! My girlfriend at work is 31 weeks and I'm always staring when she's not looking!

Re: Staring......

I hear ya, sista. I went to the diner last night with JT and people were ASKING me, not even just staring, "Should you be out, you look like you're due any minute now!"
I asked one woman, "Well, do you know how to deliver a baby just incase I DO have her any minute now?" That shut her up.
But now that I am so near the end, people say the dumbest crap to me.Chat Icon
